my workplace is full of non-english speakers..some days all i hear is Chinese being spoken all day long..

I think I am turning into some kind of racist as a result as I have come to loathe anything that has to do with that culture.

Now you understand why Europeans get annoyed when American tourists speak loudly in English.

I say, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. If you can't speak the local language, just try to be quiet.

I know right! Let's force everyone to only speak English amongst themselves. We can't let people choose what language to speak.

When we are in Europe, we are participating in commerce as visitors.

Fuck Europe.

Coming here to work full time ?  Motherfuckers should integrate and learn to speak the language.

Pretty much this. I don't give a fuck if you make up your own language, as long as you can also communicate in english when needed.

Chances are if I'm out in public and really notice and have trouble ignoring a particular person or group it's because they are very annoying and it doesn't matter what language they're speaking.

But when I worked on ships the crew was only allowed to speak English infront of guests. To avoid "rants" like OPs got.

I worked around people speaking many different languages at any given time. The real trick is to not give a fuck even if they are talking about you.

This bitch hates that, too...

Woman who smashed Muslim’s face with Applebee’s beer mug won’t face hate crime charges — here’s why

The 43-year-old Burchard-Risch angrily confronted Jama because the Muslim woman spoke Swahili with her family at a neighboring booth at the restaurant.

Jama, an ethnic Somali who came to Minnesota in 2000 from Kenya, said Burchard-Risch and her husband told her family to “go home.”

“When you’re in America you should speak English,” the woman said her attacker told her.

Free country and all. Speak whatever you want. Keep to your cultural roots......

However......

Also understand what language gets business done in the US and at least put forth the effort to attempt to learn it. And don't get all frustrated and pissed off if, after twenty years, nobody will deal with your shit because you were to lazy to try. I'm not saying to give up your native language, but don't ask everyone to bend over for you. Here's a hint....... Take a class.....show you are trying and you'll find people are willing to help you.

I see that all the time here with the Hmongs here in the upper midwest. We're getting into the third generation here and while the oldest members came in the 70's, not many have even tried. They are mostly leeches on society due to their absolute refusal to assimilate. It pays to play the victim. Their kids are now in their 40's and can do pretty well. The grandkids are pretty well assimilated.

OP. There is a difference between speaking another language in public and not knowing English.



Do you have a problem with people speaking another language in front of you when the conversation does not involve you? Would you like to force them to speak a language that you understand when you are not even part of that conversation?



I speak 3 languages, and some times its easier to speak a specific language with certain individuals.

Hypothetically, if I am talking to those certain individuals walking down the street and I pass you by, I really don't give a shit that you don't understand me. However, if you are part of our group, walking with us, we are not going to be speaking a language that you don't understand out of courtesy.

This I agree with. Also, outside of airports/ports/border crossings/etc (places where you expect international tourists/workers), English should be the only language used for signs and documents. English should be our national language. If you're going to move here and live here and work here, at least be able to speak and understand basic English. I don't care if you want to talk to others in your native tongue, just don't expect me to learn it.

Don't speak english, or able to speak an additional language?

But seeing at you're most likely in Miami I would think it would be out of the norm for an officer to not speak English and Spanish.

America is made up of people that don't speak English.



Puerto Rico, Northern Marianas Islands, Guam, various Native American Reservations, Alaskan Inuit, etc....




Don't like it? Then the English-speaking forefathers shouldn't have conquered, bought, invaded, or captured those lands and peoples and made them Americans.




Hell, the majority of America was either Spanish or French Territory. There are Spanish-speaking people who can trace their families back to when the lands they live on were Spanish territorial colonies. Old Empire Spanish in New Mexico and California and Tejanos in Texas.

Honest answer?  After having to smell for the past 18 years what the non english speakers I work with bring to lunch  on a daily basis, you couldn't get me to eat Chinese food if you had a gun to my head...

The smells that emanate from the break room at lunch are nauseating.
